Changemakrs - dream big and do great things • Hacker News Board

I love quotes as well. I've seen some people use pinterest as an effective medium for aggregating / sharing inspirational quotes... a quick search yielded this person's quote board:

Sure, quotes are embedded in images, but I think that many people like a little bit of visual context for the quote. It might be worth checking out what works/doesn't work for quotes in that medium to incorporate into your site. Just a thought.

Thanks for the new slideshow feature!

Hey arscan, designer for changemakrs here. We've also found that adding a visual element to something so textual has been really beneficial. Our big question is how to increase the effect of inspiration in the experience of the user. One answer has been images. We'd really like to use this alchemy as a jumping off point to an even more inspirational experience.
